31 Dec 17 UTC	Thank you Herr Kohl. I appreciate that
31 Dec 17 UTC	A frustrating game, first time with this variant, and I never like playing powers with split starting areas. Spent all game holding back England and trying to get Japan/China to make peace. Finally made peace then replacement Japan turned the game upside down, always annoying when a replacement undoes weeks of progress, oh well. At exact same time I made a mistake and let England into Black Sea. Game over for me at that point
31 Dec 17 UTC	Good Game all. I think that England and Japan are quite overpowered in this variant. Almost any of them would dominate the game. China and Russia are weaker one that most of times would be eliminated.
31 Dec 17 UTC	Let me just say that when I tried to take some of Russia’s SCs to prevent Japan from getting them, the last thing I expected was catastrophic failure.
31 Dec 17 UTC	gg. A 6-way draw, which most people seemed okay with when I joined, seemed unsatisfying so I fought on. I reckoned that China and Russia could be beaten without letting Britain solo. Could have been a 4-way, but only Britain has the power to destroy Russia in this position and it looked like he just wasn’t willing to. Britain, were you keeping Russia hostage for me to turn on Holland? I would have considered a 3WD but not with your forces so advanced. This is what I tried to communicate with you via my convoy message. Yeah, this variant is fun but has some glaring flaws. Japan is pretty much unkillable in gunboat, and is very challenging to defeat even in press games. China/Russia are really spread out countries and hard to keep together. Feels like a defensive war the entire game. Britain can go either way; destroyed by all its neighbors or swiftly turn into a juggernaut.
01 Jan 18 UTC	Good game guys! you are welcome Grahamso. we fought well and i like your destructions in 1880 and perhaps i need someone that dont hates me. In this game i was fighting against all countries except Japan. And the new Japan Player was against me as well of course. No Japan i dont want to take Russia as a hostage. I just saw your moves in the last years and thought i got no chance for a better draw. I was Support Holding you the last rounds and give some SM to show you that we can fight together. But you was still attacking Sinkiang or Mongolia. I cant move further at this point and i cant move back without messaging. Japan you just dont make the Feeling on me to make a better draw. For me it seemed so that everbod is just plaing to prevent my victory (i would do the same). I missunderstood your convoy message. I thought you want to be funny because i did a convoy the round before to Davao. Next time i understand this advice. I was near at the victory but my problem was France. He should attack Holland and Singapur but he realized early that i am getting too powerfull. I would have won easily if France and Holland wouldnt worked together. GG
01 Jan 18 UTC	Yeah, I must give my thanks to mayorofmunster that backed me up in this game. Thank you, Mate.
01 Jan 18 UTC	We didn't get far but happy to work with you. GG all
